[Recipe] Chocolate Chip+Pecan+Oatmeal Cookies

I’m an absolute sucker for chocolate chip cookies. Always have been. I strongly believe that there’s very little a warm, chewy cookie with chunks of gooey chocolate can’t fix. In good times and bad, it’s there for me. In sickness and in health, it does its thing. So the least I could do for it is share the love, so YOU too can appreciate the goodness.

I’ve tried dozens of recipes from books and online, and I still use this over and over again. It’s adapted from one of my favorite food blogs: www.smittenkitchen.com. I also have a vegan recipe that I use for friends/family that can’t eat these. I’ll post that later.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, I love me some pecans and oatmeal in my chocolate chip cookies, so nut allergy folks, be aware.

Directions:

3) Using an electric mixer, beat the butter in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add both sugars, salt, and vanilla, and beat until well mixed, for about 3 minutes. Add in eggs, one at a time.

4) In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add half of the flour mixture to the butter with the mixer on low speed. Once the first half of the flour has been incorporated, add the second half and mix well.

5) Stir in the oats, pecans, and chocolate chips.

6) Roll the dough into small balls and place them on the cookie sheet. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden.

7) Remove from the oven and cool the cookies on a rack. Store at room temperature.

there was no looking back, and I ended up living, studying, working, and volunteering in 6 countries (the U.S., the UK, France, Iceland, India, and Germany) and traveling to 50+ others.
